The match with The Cows
being canceled due to inadequate ice conditions, members of the Ice Bats still
flew around the ice in a 3-on-3 scrimmage.
Orville Novak, Bud Bakkonnen,
Killer Koshiol, Sure Hands Shurhamer, and Paul E. Dangerously survived the
brutal training regimen of fill-in "Coach of the Future" Boomer Antila.
Antila played task master
and had the troops run through a series of military boot-camp style drills.
Earlier in the evening,
amidst rumblings of management conflicts and equipment purchasing disputes,
GM Jumpin Jim Lemire and Coach Shakes Hanson, were broken apart in a scuffle
during a pre-game kickoff celebration at Adrian's by Bat newcomer Mini Van
Mohlis.
The three were not in
any shape to partake in the scrimmage so GM Lemire gave Hanson, Mohlis, and
himself the night off.

Lemire after reported incapacitating fight
After the scrimmage,
the tavern talk at Adrian's was filled with a lust and lore of a simpler time
when all of the team members worked for the same employer and recalled shared
experiences and also how the Bats would have made mince-meat of The Cows.
Bud Bakkonnen trying
to one-up Orville Novak in a game of "what have you done lately", had claimed
to have written his own Internet.
The evening ended as
the bartender gleefully told the Bat patrons, "why don't you folks leave right
now before I call the police".
